It is with great pride and pleasure that we present the Souvenir and Abstract Book of the 9th
National Convention: AGRIVISION-2025, held from July 26–27, 2025, at the National
Agricultural Science Complex, New Delhi. This landmark event, themed “Empowered
Youth – Prosperous Agriculture: Skill, Innovation and Entrepreneurship,” brings
together a vibrant confluence of young minds, seasoned experts, policymakers, and agriinnovators
from across the country to reimagine and revitalize Indian agriculture.
AGRIVISION has grown into a premier national platform that fosters critical discourse,
collaborative thinking, and strategic action to transform agriculture into a more inclusive,
sustainable, and profitable sector. The 9th edition continues this legacy by placing youth at the
centre of the conversation—acknowledging them not just as beneficiaries, but as the drivers of
change. The convention highlights the significance of equipping young professionals with
cutting-edge skills, fostering an innovation-driven mindset, and promoting agrientrepreneurship
for holistic rural development and food system resilience.
This souvenir and abstract book is a reflection of the intellectual depth and thematic diversity
of the convention. It encompasses lead lectures and scientific abstracts that delve into critical
areas such as agri-startups, digital agriculture, climate-resilient farming, value chain
innovation, and skill-based capacity building. These contributions are a testament to the
enthusiasm, creativity, and commitment of India’s agricultural research and innovation
ecosystem.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all contributors, participants, organizing committee
members, partnering institutions, and sponsors who made AGRIVISION-2025 a resounding
success. It is our sincere hope that this compilation serves not only as a record of the
convention’s scholarly engagements but also as a source of inspiration for continued efforts
toward building a youth-empowered, innovation-led, and prosperous agricultural future.
